Sex in restroom stalls is private, ACLU says
Civil liberties group goes to bat for Sen. Craig

ST. PAUL, Minnesota - In a legal effort to help a U.S. senator, the American Civil Liberties Union is arguing that people who have sex in public bathrooms have an expectation of privacy.
Republican Senator Larry Craig is asking the Minnesota Court of Appeals to let him withdraw his guilty plea to disorderly conduct related to a bathroom sex sting at the Minneapolis airport last year.
Craig was arrested by an undercover police officer who said Craig tapped his feet and swiped his hand under a stall divider in a way that signaled he wanted sex. Craig has denied that, saying his actions were misconstrued.
The ACLU filed a brief Tuesday supporting Craig. It cited a Minnesota Supreme Court ruling 38 years ago that found that people who have sex in closed stalls in public restrooms "have a reasonable expectation of privacy."
That means the state cannot prove Craig was inviting the undercover officer to have sex in public, the ACLU wrote.
Even if Craig was inviting the officer to have sex, the ACLU argued, his actions would not be illegal.
So, the end result of Republican Senator Larry Craig (a noted public homophobe and anti-gay rights legislator) trying to wank off a cop is that me and my girlfriend can now fuck like dirty, dirty pigs in the Minnesota Waffle House bathrooms and expect to get away with it, because it's protected by our constitutional rights?
Well, I guess some good came out of this, after all.
For the nasty, nasty things that I fully intend to do in the Minnesota public bathrooms, I would like to thank you the ACLU.
Now, if they'll only go get me a towel. THAT would be "full-service".
Cheers,
Mr.B

"Girlfriend".... HA!
Admit it. You just wanna cornhole Sammy in the TH men's room.
Nope. Waffle Houses are privately owned, and therefore not subject to the laws governing public use.
Don't ask me how I know this.
